The Dr. Lorna Breen Health Care Provider Protection Reauthorization Act would reauthorize a federal grant program that was originally enacted in March 2022, according to a Dec. 4 news release from the ADA.
Versions of the bill were passed by committees in both the House and Senate with bipartisan support earlier this year.
The Lorna Breen Act is the only federal law that is dedicated to preventing suicide and reducing occupational burnout, mental health conditions and stress for healthcare professionals.
